Teacher Matt has developed a theater and cinema experience only someone in 'the biz' can dream up. Kids will start with some intro-to-acting warmups that are good for budding performers or anyone with butterflies in their bellies! Light exercises will set the scene, and help Teacher Matt determine which way to steer his young company. For experience-goers who are naturally shy, Teacher Matt has just the thing, and always keeps things light, fun, creative, and conscientious of everyone's comfort-level in the spotlight.
Once loosened up, improv games will prompt laughter and get kids to pay attention to their surroundings. By exploring one's emotions, and how they can be acted out through facial expressions, dialogue, and writing, children will start to delve into acting (which is, of course, reacting!) and storytelling. Storyboarding is also on this experience's call sheet. By the end, kids will walk away with a sense of accomplishment and self-confidence that extends far beyond the reaches of the theatre. That's a wrap! 🎬
This experience is available as one-time but best as a multi-week series where children will develop themes and an entire production.
